Notes
- Substitutions
- Preparation Notes
- You can substitute yellow onions for the white onion. Simmer for an extra 10 minutes.
- You can substitute regular oregano for Mexican oregano.
- You may not have to add extra salt because powdered bouillons tend to be salty. Taste the soup just before serving and adjust the salt if necessary.
- The flavors blend nicely if you let the soup sit for 30 minutes. Heat to desired temperature before serving.
- It keeps well in the refrigerator for 3 days although we doubt you will have leftovers.
